What Will Get Us Through?

Two pertinent questions that were foremost in our minds regarding the COVID-19 pandemic were &quote;when will this virus end? After about two months and no immediate end in sight, the second question became &quote;what's going to get us through this pandemic?&quote; This unprecedented virus changed our entire way of living. Businesses, stores, schools, and houses of worship were closed. Shelter in place, wash your hands frequently, use hand sanitizer, wear a mask, social distance became the mandated directives of the day. Many jobs were lost due to business shut-downs, which created economic hardships for many families It was my prayer that as I prepared these messages &quote;for such a time as this,&quote; I would be guided by the Holy Spirit to deliver a Word that would offer peace (&quote;Perfect Peace&quote;), encouragement (&quote;Yes There Is!&quote;), salvation (&quote;God's Gift of Repentance&quote;), God's protection (&quote;Refuge at the Lord's Table&quote;), and a desire within the hearer to have a closer relationship with God (&quote;Sheltered in Place&quote;). As you read, visualize, and hear these messages in your heart, mind, and spirit, it is my prayer that you will be able to answer the question &quote;WHAT WILL GET US THROUGH?&quote;
